Nine clearances in defeat
Cordoba recorded two tackles (two won) and nine clearances in Saturday's 2-0 loss to England.
Analysis: Cordoba inadvertently deflected an Eberechi Eze effort behind for a corner late in the match, one of several defensive interventions in Saturday's 2-0 World Cup defeat to England. He was part of a Panama back line that limited England to 1.49 expected goals across the full 90 minutes despite the Three Lions' territorial dominance, ending the game with nine clearances and two tackles (two won). Panama's tournament concludes with the result, eliminated at the bottom of Group L without a single goal scored in three matches.
Struggles in loss
Cordoba generated one cross (zero accurate) and two tackles in Tuesday's 1-0 loss against Croatia.
Analysis: Cordoba had plenty of trouble stopping Croatia's attackers, as he committed four fouls and won only three of his 10 duels throughout the game. On the other hand, the defender tied as his side's best contributor of clearances with seven. He has logged every possible minute in the first two matches but lacks future value with his country already eliminated ahead of the final group contest.
